I know I can open up FCP and see the input via log/capture, but is there a less resource intensive way (And preferably full screen) to view firewire input from a video source (camcorder) in realtime.

I don't want to capture the source, just display it on my screen. I can't seem to find any info on this. Any advice is welcomed. Cheers.

What about QTPro? Other ideas are BTV or HackTV (Apple sample code app)

Vidi works well, too, and it's freeware.
